Their Band was 4A State Champs! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Feb 9, 2020 Played the course:once

Pros:

-Very nice goals that are in fantastic shape because no one plays on them.
-Safari layout attached to this page has easily recognizable tee markers and distances.
-Great place to bring new players to develop their power game.
-Hole 6 on the hill was a challenging putting hole.
-No danger of losing discs.

Cons:

-No tee signs
-No welcome sign
-Few obstacles
-No water risk (some could say this is positive.)
-Cannot play in school hours

Other Thoughts:

I came out here after some local flooding because most of my go to courses are a sloppy mess. I have never played here, so I figured I would at least go try. Worst case is I get to huck some plastic.

Other than baskets in the ground, there is no other sign of a course being here. No tee signs, no tee pads, no welcome signs, no schedule for allowed play, etc. If it had not been for the safari map on DGCR, I would have had no clue as to where to start.

The tee pads on the safari map were easy to find and made sense. Map in hand, I set out to make the best of my morning.

Hole 1: Long 360+ft bomb drive that is wide open. Not much challenge (reoccurring theme), but it was nice to just throw the heck out of a disc. I birdied it by the way, so that was nice.

Hole 2: Straight fairway driver to hole with no obstacles. Nothing to see here.

Hole 3: Straight putter to hole with no obstacles. Nothing to see here.

Hole 4: 380+ ft hole that let me pull out my Crank and let her rip. With literally nothing in the way and a low risk OB (baseball field to the right) I was able to enjoy watching the full S curve flight as I ripped it. Man, that felt good.

Hole 5: Straight putter to hole with no obstacles. Nothing to see here.

Hole 6: Toughest hole on the course. 380+ ft with basket planted on a steep hill. Putts have a tendency to end further away than they started if they catch a roll. I know mine did.

Hole 7: Only 261 ft, but also playing from a very elevated tee. Great place to practice getting used to elevation change.

Hole 8: Straight fairway driver to hole with no obstacles. Nothing to see here.

Hole 9: Straight putter to hole with no obstacles. Nothing to see here.

The back Safari 9 was basically the holes in reverse with different tee pads. I found the front 9 a little more challenging than the return trip.

Is this a championship course? Heck no. Its not even a tournament level course. But, there are holes here where you can practice certain scenarios you may find on more challenging courses. It also looks like a fantastic place to teach new people the game or get field work in.

Despite the lack of challenge, it was a fun round of carefree disc rippage in some places.

Property Well-utilized! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Feb 8, 2014 Played the course:once

Pros:

-The elevation is well-used! One of the best Top of the World shots in Hole 6.
-Brand new DISCatchers. The green bands are a fantastic touch!
-The course is wide open, but every shot is different enough to create variety.
-The extra set of tees give you a different look on each hole.
-Most holes are 300ish which is great for beginners while still providing challenge for more experienced players.
-Course was well-groomed.

Cons:

-The tees are marked by short flags and are very difficult to locate. Several are missing.
-The course is wide open with the exception of a few saplings here and there.
-Natural tee pads with the exception of Hole 9 which uses existing pavement.

Other Thoughts:

Overall, this course is fun play (especially if you enjoy elevation). This is not your usual pitch-and-putt course because it gives you a little bit of distance, but is nothing to write home about.
